How much downforce does a 460kgs Caterham generate? :rasp: The only thing that'll upset this car I think would be if the centre of gravity was too high...but with a carbon roof, glassfibre doors and plastic windows that's never going to be a problem. Surely its c of g would be be at...

LOL, lack of weight will only improve things...it might have less mass pushing down on each corner, but each tyre contact patch has correspondingly less work to do in controlling and changing the direction of the body. Win all round really - if it's set-up well, it will be almost unbeatable on...

A lot... http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=357684

They'd look like this (excuse the stickers LOL)...this is on standard suspension, but weighing 100+ kgs less than standard so it sits a little high. Tyres are 205/50/R15...

What does your average speed reading say?

Just the one seat for me...

I managed a full tank at a shade over 11mpg on a full day at a very dry Goodwood once, so to see 8mpg, immediately after resetting the trip computer is bang on.

I had this, turned out it needed a new throttle body for me.

No way is my car a 5 second car! If you watch the video properly and listen to it as well, you'll hear me start moving when the handbrake light goes out...which is at least 1 second before the speedo needle gets moving. Don't forget the speedo starts at 10mph...so if you watch the needle...

So, 2 seconds is pulled out by the Mazda over 2 miles! Have you any idea how close the Clio would be for the first mile, or how insignificant any difference on the road would be? They're heavy...based on the above but with the Clio at a correct 1,110 kgs, the power to weight is; Clio 155...

Re: My Ph1 172 track sl*g Progress Thread A homemade heater that only exists to demist the screen, screw the occupants. I f***ing love you.

As above, brakes and tyres are all you need. Less weight helps a lot though.

As above...

If it was in the Paddock that was Yozza, if it was a Cup that went past him on track it was Edd.

That's insane.

Nice, rare, heavy ;)

£500. 12bhp. Bargain.

.

Yep, 60 or so sounds about right. To get the same from engine mods you'd need to add almost 12bhp.

Re: My Ph1 172 track sl*g Progress Thread Dedication, Dedication, Dedication, that's what you need... Impressive Jay...must get my dash out and see if they've stuck any of that sticky tar crap over mine!

Apart from BBC News are there any other channels you can watch online realtime? I always thought owning TV receiving equipment made you liable for the license fee but a mate of mine moved into a flat recently, had his widescreen CRT TV, DVD player, PC, and no TV license. I told him he was...

Not sure how many turns mine is. When it's running again I'll find out.

Mine's driving me insane! Alright most of the time but every now and then it has a fit, and it's almost unusable; it stutters, doesn't respond, loses the tap/click function. Doesn't always come back with a reboot/hibernation either. Anyone else had a problem? It's on a Dell Latitude D620 if...

Really? Mine's electrically assisted but just not connected up?

Brembo HC, braided lines, good fluid freshly bled, and Carbone Lorraines for me. Having done Pagid Blues, Ferodo DS2500s, and PF97s before, the only ones I'd go back to are CLs again or the Pagid Blues. DS2500s are rubbish, and PF97s are not worth the mess. Never tried any grooved discs (a...

For the record...mine definitely does not have electrical assistance...nothing whatsoever except for my shoulders turns the front wheels. I'm sure Fred commented that it looked like an old 16v Valver rack or something.

LOL - it's no biggie, I just don't think arty shots have any place on a car advert...you're selling your car, not your picture composition and photography skills!

Just seen the other pics on there, does look nice...apart from the comedy bra.

Nope. TBF if I was hunting for one I wouldn't have done either.
